My Core Values

Learning

I am obsessed with learning and helping you learn better. Life-long learning can lead to a better life, better art, more energy and motivation, and a better community and planet. Journaling is the most powerful learning tool that I know of.

Nature

My job is to help you see more and learn more in nature. This can make you happier, healthier, and more inspired. Everything we need comes from nature: Beauty, inspiration, relationships, meaning, sustenance. We have a responsibility and interdependence with nature. Everything I do comes back to nature.

Community

Where would I be without the nature journaling community and my Patreon community? Everything I’m doing now is made possible by my Patreon members. Community is necessary for our wellbeing, our learning, and our ability to make a difference.

Nature Journaling

I believe that Nature journaling combines all of my core values into one. It is a practice that uses drawings, words, and numbers to help people learn about nature. It can help anyone be a better, happier, and more creative person and even improve our relationships. It can also help us learn faster, see new connections, be more observant, and improve our thinking and questions. And of course it can help us see more in nature, document it, and live with it in a more sustainable way.
